NBA Elite 11 Getting Real-Time Physics

Earlier today the news broke of the NBA Live series being rebranded NBA Elite and with that a drastic shift in the direction of the franchise. Now thanks the OXM preview in its July edition it is revealed that the game will also be introducing real-time physics. In addition to that the heavy reliance on analog sticks will mean both dribbling and shooting are mapped to the right stick.

It was just last week we learned that EA Sports is introducing real-time physics in the NHL series. Both games are developed out of the EA Canada studio. The article basically just went into preliminary information on the real-time physics and right stick controls. Shooting will involve how straight up the right stick is pushed determining the success percentage of each attempt. Leave your thoughts in the comments!

To recap:EA releases a new engine (a huge gameplay change) and people on here are entirely negative and saying it will be the same game anway and call it a marketing gimmick.2k might have MJ on the cover (marketing) and it is met with priase as if the game already came out and got perfect reviews from everyone.
